Giants' Brian Burns: Tallies sack in win
Burns logged five tackles (four solo), including 1.0 sacks, during the Giants' win over the Chargers on Sunday.
Burns continued his strong season Sunday, as he's now logged at least 1.0 sacks in each of the team's first four games. The 27-year-old is currently on pace to set new career high totals in both tackles and sacks. He will look to keep up this high level of production next week versus the Saints.

Seahawks' Coby Bryant: Picks off another pass Thursday
Bryant recorded an interception during Thursday's 23-20 win at Arizona.
Bryant was on the field for all 67 of the Seahawks' defensive snaps in Week 4, and quarterback Kyler Murray barely ever threw in his direction. One of the few times he did, however, Bryant settled under an overthrown ball in the middle of the field for his second interception of the season (although he did ultimately fumble the ball back to the Cardinals). His prowess in coverage continues to limit his tackling opportunities and hurt his value as an IDP asset.

Cardinals' Calais Campbell: Adds to sack total in Week 4 loss
Campbell registered three tackles (two solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's loss to Seattle.
Campbell had two tackles for loss Sunday, including a second-quarter sack of Sam Darnold. The veteran defender is up to 3.0 sacks on the campaign, which already puts him past the halfway mark toward the 5.0 sacks he recorded over 17 regular-season contests with Miami last year. Campbell's career-best regular-season total is 14.5 sacks, which he posted while with Jacksonville in 2017.

Leonard Williams DT | SEA
Seahawks' Leonard Williams: Posts 1.5 sacks Thursday
Williams recorded four tackles (three solo) including 1.5 sacks and a pass defensed during Thursday's 23-20 win at Arizona.
Williams registered in the sack column for the third consecutive game in Week 4, bringing his sack total on the season up to 2.5. He's on pace for his second straight double-digit sack season, and he'll be facing a banged up Buccaneers offensive line when he takes the field in Week 5.

Byron Young LB | LAR
Rams' Byron Young: Extends sack streak to four games
Young logged three tackles (two solo), including 1.0 sacks, during the Rams' 27-20 win over the Colts on Sunday.
It didn't take long for Young to make an impact; he sacked Daniel Jones for a one-yard loss on the Colts' second offensive play of the game. Young has logged at least 1.0 sacks in each of the first four games of the regular season, and his 5.0 sacks is tied with Brian Burns for most in the NFL.

Dodson recorded nine tackles (five solo) including 1.0 sacks and a forced fumble during Monday's 27-21 win versus the Jets.
Late in the second quarter of Monday's contest, Dodson snuck around the edge on a delayed blitz and swiped the football out of quarterback Justin Fields' hands, ultimately forcing the second Jets turnover of the day. It was his second straight game with a sack. He projects as a plus IDP play heading into a Week 5 tilt at Carolina.

Bengals' Demetrius Knight: Picks off pass on MNF
Knight recorded 10 tackles (six solo) and an interception in Monday's Week 4 loss to Denver.

Knight's NFL tenure is off to a promising start, as he's tallied 31 tackles and two defensed passes through four games.
